Chapter Index

    “Naruto Big Brother, are you stupid? You believe what the enemy says. Uchiha Madara must have said these things to you to achieve some goal of his own.”

    Obito grumbled.

    Before Uchiha Madara died, he told Obito to look at the stone monument at Nanga Shrine, but Obito couldn’t be bothered.

    Why should he listen to someone who wanted to kill Muzuki-sensei and Rin?

    “Maybe it’s to bring negative fame to Konoha, throw Konoha into chaos, and then deal with Konoha more easily.”

    Obito thought it was better to pretend he hadn’t heard Uchiha Madara’s words, since Itachi from Uzumaki Naruto’s world was already dead anyway.

    “Hmm, because I’m not sure if it’s true or not, Kakashi-sensei told me not to tell anyone else in the Village.”

    Naruto nodded and said that he hadn’t told anyone about Itachi.

    Obito’s expression was subtle. Although he knew that the Kakashi Naruto spoke of wasn’t the Kakashi he was familiar with, he still felt awkward.

    He called Naruto Big Brother, and Naruto called Kakashi-sensei. This meant he was a generation younger than Kakashi for no reason.

    “Achieve what goal? I can’t think of any use for this besides making me angry.”

    Naruto shook his head in confusion.

    At that time, he really wanted to punch Uchiha Madara, who was trying to manipulate Sasuke.

    Unfortunately, Uchiha Madara’s abilities were too strange; he came and went without a trace. Even Yamato’s Wood Release couldn’t do anything to Uchiha Madara.

    “Could it be because I convinced Nagato, and he was uncomfortable because of it, so he wanted to annoy me?”

    Naruto scratched his head, speculating.

    “If the Uchiha Madara in your world is that boring, I’d call him the dumbest Uchiha Madara.”

    Obito chuckled and casually grumbled.

    “So your world also has Nagato. He wouldn’t happen to be a Ninja from that Evil Akatsuki Organization, would he?”

    Immediately after, Obito noticed a familiar name in Naruto’s words.

    Before they knew that the two worlds were parallel worlds, Obito and the others had speculated that the Akatsuki Organization created by Nagato and Yahiko was the predecessor of the Evil Akatsuki Organization.

    “Yes, he was Uchiha Madara’s subordinate, but Nagato is different from that scoundrel Uchiha Madara. He yearns for peace; his methods are just wrong.”

    Naruto nodded in response.

    “Only lies mixed with enough truth can deceive people. Perhaps some of it is factual.”

    Shisui, who had finished thinking, spoke up.

    His view was slightly different from Obito’s.

    It was certain that Uchiha Madara had ill intentions, but to say that everything Uchiha Madara said was false, that might not be the case.

    “If the conflict between the Clan and the Village continues to escalate, it is indeed very likely to lead to a military coup.”

    Shisui thought to himself.

    He had toiled for a long time over the conflict between the Uchiha Clan and Konoha, and his feelings on this matter were far greater than Obito’s.

    Just because the Second Hokage was a member of the Senju Clan, some Uchiha already wanted to stage a coup to seize power, let alone after the Nine-Tailed incident when the entire Clan was completely marginalized.

    “I thought so too. After all, our two worlds should have many similarities. I thought this information might be useful to you, so I called you out.”

    Naruto scratched his head and said.

    His counterpart in this world would have a happy and complete family life.

    At the same time, Naruto also hoped that Sasuke in this world could live as happily as his counterpart in this world.

    And not have his parents and all his clansmen killed by his favorite older brother, no longer needing to pursue power for revenge and betray the Village.

    “Shisui, you know more about the Clan’s affairs. What do you think?”

    Obito looked at Shisui and asked.

    From the outside, Obito was the current prominent Ninja of the Uchiha Clan.

    However, Obito was not interested in Clan affairs at all, and coupled with only a few friends like Shisui and Uchiha Inaho in the Clan, he wasn’t particularly familiar with the true situation of the Uchiha Clan.

    “Naruto, thank you very much for the information, but this kind of thing will not happen in our world.”

    Shisui first thanked Naruto, then replied.

    Under his and Muzuki’s efforts, the Uchiha were already close to integrating into Konoha like other Ninja Clans. Once some of the old stubborn members of the Clan passed away, the Uchiha Clan would be completely integrated into Konoha.

    “The reason why the Uchiha Clan in your world staged a coup was mainly due to long-standing accumulated conflicts, coupled with the impact of the Nine-Tailed Night…”

    Shisui explained the underlying reasons to Naruto.

    “Uh, so you mean the Uchiha Clan won’t be annihilated?”

    Listening to Shisui’s analysis from various angles, Naruto instantly felt a headache, scratching his head as he asked.

    Shisui nodded. From the result, it was indeed so.

    “That’s good then.”

    Naruto’s face broke into a brilliant smile.

    This way, the other Sasuke could also live a happy life.

    “Naruto Big Brother, you’re not doing well. If you want to become Hokage, you need to read more books.”

    Looking at Naruto, Obito inexplicably felt a sense of intellectual superiority.

    Nothing else, he completely understood Shisui’s analysis.

    He felt it was no different from Muzuki explaining history and politics questions.

    “Uchiha Itachi…”

    Shisui sighed slightly.

    If what Uchiha Madara said was true, then Uchiha Itachi was also a pitiful person, bearing immense pressure from both the Clan and Konoha at such a young age.

    Of course, this did not mean Shisui approved of Uchiha Itachi.

    Regardless, Uchiha Itachi was the murderer who slaughtered the Uchiha Clan.

    Moreover, Uchiha Itachi claimed to be an Akatsuki spy, but according to Naruto’s words, Uchiha Itachi’s long-term infiltration had almost no effect.

    Furthermore, why Uchiha Itachi had his eyes, and what he intended to do with the power of his eyes, remained an unknown mystery.

    “Since he’s already dead, there’s nothing that can be done.”

    Shisui shook his head, shaking off the distracting thoughts.

    If Uchiha Itachi hadn’t died, then he could have gone to the other world to capture Uchiha Itachi and ascertain the truth.

    But since Uchiha Itachi was dead, the real truth was probably only known to the Konoha higher-ups and Uchiha Madara in the other world.

    “However, I need to pay more attention to Itachi.”

    Before, he thought that his counterpart in the other world failed to prevent the Clan’s annihilation because ‘he’ died during a dangerous mission before the annihilation. He didn’t expect it was Uchiha Itachi who did it.

    Based on existing experience, people from the two worlds are extremely similar.

    To prevent Itachi from going astray, he had to guide him properly.

    Just like Nagato, the Nagato in their world took the right path because he received correct guidance from Muzuki.

    Nagato in Uzumaki Naruto’s world became Uchiha Madara’s subordinate, thus going down the evil path.

    Environment can greatly influence a person.

    In the early morning, an extremely enticing aroma woke Naruto from his sleep.

    “It’s Muzuki Big Brother’s ramen!”

    Upon realizing what the aroma was, Naruto’s eyes snapped open. He sprang up from bed with a carp-like leap, quickly got dressed, and rushed towards the source of the smell.

    They weren’t staying in a hotel, but a large guesthouse. Last night’s dinner was also Muzuki’s exceptional cooking.

    “Muzuki Big Brother, you’re truly too…”

    Naruto rushed towards the kitchen, wanting to thank Muzuki, but before entering the kitchen, a white-haired figure at the dining table made Naruto stop in his tracks, momentarily speechless.

    Noticing Naruto’s gaze, Jiraiya stopped slurping his noodles and raised an eyebrow, saying:

    “Even if you stare at me like that, I won’t give you my ramen.”

    For Jiraiya, who traveled the world, eating Muzuki’s cooking was not an easy feat; he would even have to consider it if Tsunade came.

    Naruto wiped the corner of his eye and couldn’t help but laugh, saying:

    “Who wants to eat Ero-Sennin’s leftovers? Muzuki Big Brother definitely made a portion for me.”

    With that, Naruto ran into the kitchen.

    As soon as Naruto entered the kitchen, he just happened to see a steaming bowl of pork miso chashu ramen.

    “Take it and eat, it’s freshly made.”

    Muzuki said with a faint smile.

    Naruto’s dried eyes couldn’t help but become a little moist again.

    “Muzuki Big Brother, thank you.”

    Naruto didn’t take the ramen, but instead bowed seriously to Muzuki, genuinely moved. He truly was touched.

    He missed Jiraiya, and Muzuki found Jiraiya for him, and even prepared his favorite ramen for him in the morning.

    It was like this last time too. Naruto felt a little overwhelmed; was he worthy of such treatment from Muzuki? They weren’t even from the same world.

    Snap.

    Muzuki joined his index and middle fingers and tapped Naruto on the forehead, “Don’t overthink it. Ramen isn’t good when it’s cold.”

    The reason he was willing to do these things was simple: they were effortless for him.

    Compared to Naruto in Muzuki’s world, the original Naruto was truly too tragic.

    “Mm-hmm, Muzuki Big Brother, you come eat too.”

    Naruto nodded heavily and said.

    Muzuki did not refuse, carrying a bowl of ramen and walking out with Naruto.

    At this time, the other disciples had also more or less woken up and similarly followed the aroma.

    “Uncle Toad, why are you here? Are you also coming with us to another world?”

    Obito asked curiously when he saw Jiraiya eating ramen.

    “Go to another world?”

    Jiraiya asked back.

    Actually, he was just traveling in the countries around Rouran when he received a message from Hefeng, so he came over.

    As for Uzumaki Naruto, Jiraiya still maintained his past perception, treating Uzumaki Naruto as a future Ninja.

    Naruto opened his mouth, wanting to interrupt Obito, but in the end, he didn’t speak.

    He didn’t want Jiraiya to take risks.

    But Naruto had no right to say that, otherwise, what would Hefeng and Obito, who actively offered to help, be considered?

    Wouldn’t Hefeng and the others encounter danger? Weren’t their lives also lives?

    Moreover, Naruto understood Jiraiya.

    If Jiraiya truly made up his mind to help, he couldn’t be persuaded.

    Obito looked at Hefeng. The parallel world wasn’t as sensitive as the future world, but it was still classified information and required confidentiality.

    Hefeng nodded.

    He believed there was no need to hide this from Jiraiya.

    If Jiraiya was interested and wanted to go to the parallel world, then he would just take him along.

    After all, Jiraiya wasn’t a weakling; although he couldn’t help much, he wouldn’t cause trouble.

    With Hefeng backing him up, even if Jiraiya somehow caused his own demise, Hefeng would have a way to bring him back.

    “Big Brother Naruto is actually not a future Ninja, but…”

    Obito briefly explained the parallel world and the Fourth Shinobi World War.

    “So that’s how it is, another world, Uchiha Madara…”

    Jiraiya showed a surprised expression, then fell into deep thought.

    There was no talking at the dinner table after that, only the sound of slurping noodles.

    “Looks like we arrived just in time?”

    Leader Kakuzu’s eyes lit up as he watched everyone happily eating ramen.

    After Hefeng revealed his identity, he had tasted Hefeng’s cooking, and it was absolutely superb.

    “Indeed.”

    Nagato nodded.

    To catch breakfast, they purposely quickened their pace and arrived at Rouran early.

    “Or maybe we just missed it.”

    Sasori observed and said.

    Some people had already finished eating, and their bowls were no longer steaming, indicating that some time had passed since the meal began.

    “Eh, Kakuzu! Sasori! Nagato!”

    Naruto, who had finished eating, glanced towards the source of the sound and instinctively assumed a fighting stance.

    “Where did this blonde brat come from, so rude.”

    Kakuzu crossed his arms and scrutinized Naruto.

    He was, after all, the Minister of Finance for the Ninja World Alliance; even Kage would address him as Leader Kakuzu.

    “Uh, sorry, I mistook you for someone else.”

    Naruto, realizing his mistake, apologized awkwardly.

    Nagato was fine, but Kakuzu and Sasori were truly almost identical to the Kakuzu and Sasori in his memory.

    He almost wanted to rub a Rasengan.

    “He’s that Ninja from the parallel world, right?”

    Sasori thought for a moment and said.

    Last night, Hefeng contacted them, informed them a little about their parallel world, and asked them to come to Rouran to go to the parallel world together.

    It’s worth mentioning that Kakuzu was not on the list; he proactively applied to Hefeng to go after he found out, saying he wanted to verify some ideas.

    Since Kakuzu was still strong and had tenacious vitality, Hefeng agreed.

    “Could this be Hefeng’s descendant from another world?”

    Kakuzu looked at Hefeng, then at Naruto, and said.

    Naruto’s face didn’t look much like Hefeng’s, but his hair color was very similar.

    “Don’t guess wildly. There is no me in the other world. The two worlds are only similar, not completely identical.”

    Hefeng explained, then took out several steaming bowls of ramen from Daikokuten.

    It must be said that Daikokuten is indeed effective for keeping things fresh.

    “This world is really good.”

    Naruto looked at the newly joined trio of noodle slurpers and sighed in his heart.

    Even though he didn’t yet understand Nagato and the others from Hefeng’s world, he could infer some information from their behavior and Obito’s reactions.

    The Nagato, Kakuzu, and Sasori of this world would never be members of that Evil Akatsuki Organization that caused chaos in the Ninja World.

    “Jiraiya, you’re here too.”

    Just a few minutes after Nagato and the others arrived, another voice familiar to Naruto rang out.

    Naruto turned his head and almost couldn’t help but assume a fighting stance again.

    The person who came was Orochimaru, who killed the Third Hokage, destroyed Konoha, and lured Sasuke into betraying the Village!

    There were very few people in this world who could make Naruto feel hatred, and Orochimaru was one of them.

    Fortunately, Naruto’s mind was very clear. He knew that although both were Orochimaru, they couldn’t be generalized, and he forcibly suppressed his actions.

    “Are you also going to another world?”

    Jiraiya looked at Orochimaru and asked.

    Orochimaru nodded in affirmation.

    In the initial list of aid personnel, besides the disciples Hefeng wanted to take for experience, there were only Orochimaru and Sasori.

    Orochimaru and Sasori were both research-oriented talents; taking them would allow them to gain some benefits from the parallel world.

    Furthermore, Orochimaru and Sasori also had strong self-preservation abilities, making them less prone to accidents.

    “Are you going too?”

    Orochimaru asked.

    “I want to go. After all, it’s another Ninja World. Ninja novels rarely have such plots.”

    Jiraiya smiled.

    Since Orochimaru was going along, there was nothing to think about; it was just like going on a long trip with a friend.

    As he spoke, Jiraiya observed Hefeng’s expression.

    He was Hefeng’s elder, but Hefeng was now, after all, the leader of the entire Ninja World. If Hefeng thought he shouldn’t go, then Jiraiya wouldn’t be able to say anything.

    Fortunately, Hefeng’s face showed no unusual expression and he even nodded. Jiraiya thought Hefeng must have agreed.

    After breakfast, Naruto consciously went to an open area to train.

    This world was beautiful, but it was not his world after all; this world already had a Naruto.

    His world was still in a dangerous war, and he had to become as strong as possible, then defeat Uchiha Madara with Hefeng and the others to save the Ninja World.

    “Sage Art: Yang Release Breathing Chakra Mode!”

    Naruto adjusted his breathing, transformed the gathered natural energy into Senjutsu Chakra, immediately entered both Sage Mode and Breathing Technique Chakra Mode simultaneously, and charged towards the Hefeng Shadow Clone in front of him.

    Hefeng’s current strength had reached a level unimaginable to ordinary Ninja; even his Shadow Clone put Naruto into a bitter struggle.

    Obito and Kakashi and the others were also training nearby. When they got tired, they would go to Naruto’s side to watch him train for a while.

    At 9:30, Might Guy, who was called by Hefeng, also successfully arrived at Rouran and joined the training army.

    “So diligent.”

    Obito sighed.

    Naruto seemed to have endless energy; whenever he thought Naruto was about to rest, Naruto would take two breaths and start again.

    “Naruto’s current feeling is the same as ours when we faced Uchiha Madara. If we could have paused to train for a while back then, we would have been like this too.”

    Kakashi said.

    Obito nodded in agreement. There must be many people Naruto cared about in that world being persecuted by Uchiha Madara through war.

    “Damn Uchiha Madara!”

    Obito couldn’t help but curse in his heart. This Uchiha Madara was truly detestable; he was a super villain in every world.

    “Naruto, your Yang Release and Wind Release are both very good, but your Yang Release enhancement is too rough. You need to combine Sage Art, Yang Release, and Wind Release, these three powers, better.”

    Hefeng called a halt to Naruto’s training and said.

    In a short time, he certainly couldn’t customize a Wind Release version of the Super Sage Art Breathing Technique for Naruto, but improving the technique further could also raise Naruto’s upper limit.

    With that, Hefeng rapidly condensed natural energy, extended his palm, and demonstrated it to Naruto.

    After his seven Chakra natures reached perfect level, his understanding of Chakra had reached a completely new level, and the fusion of two Chakras was simply easy.

    “Big Brother Hefeng, I understand.”

    Naruto thought for a moment, then formed hand signs and created a large number of Shadow Clones.

    Although the Shadow Clone training method was tiring, it was also truly fast.

    “Eh?”

    The Nine-Tailed Beast, lying in its cage within the consciousness space, sensed something and showed a look of surprise.

    “Big Brother Hefeng…”

    Naruto was about to ask Hefeng a question when he looked at the golden and fiery red flash that suddenly entered his vision, and he couldn’t help but freeze.
